Our Pick: Gangi, Saint Motel, Free Moral Agents, Crooked Cowboy @ Spaceland (Free!)
Tonight Hello Stranger front woman and keytar goddess Juliette Commagere (LAist Interview, Review) will be continuing her month-long residency at the Echo. Brooklyn-based retro 70s psych rockers Golden Animals are poised to headline the Silver Lake Lounge with NY-based alt-folk outfit Arizona in tow. And, lastly, local experimental rock act the Antarcticans will be annihilating eardrums at the Smell. But we strongly suggest heading over to Spaceland to catch LA-based experimental psych folk duo Gangi (LAist Review), who will be resuming their month-long residency as well. LAist favorite Crooked Cowboy is slated to kick things off.
You can find these listings as well as the rest of the week's in our weekly Week In Rock post, which goes up every Sunday.
